AI chatbots are live in Substrata! Anyone can create a chatbot for their land parcels or their personal worlds. You can customise their personality and set a custom avatar. Use them to greet visitors to your parcel, promote your wares, or whatever!

Chatbots are free for any Substrata user to create.

New River Mouth district land available!

2 Dec 2025

The new River Mouth district is ready! Land parcels are up for auction now, and auctions will continue over the next few weeks.

Parcels jut out into the water so you can build a dock in the water for boats etc.

The parcel auctions will be 48 hour downwards auctions, with a start price of 1000 EUR, and with a reserve/final price of 50 EUR. View the auctions here.

I'm hoping we get some nice fun builds with some watery seaside town and boathouse vibes! See you there!

Lua scripting coming to Substrata

28 Jun 2024

Hi all,

Lua scripting is being added to Substrata. This will allow games, for example a bike racing course with timing and a leaderboard, or chess, or even a paintball shooter.

It will also allow interfacing with the rest of the interenet via HTTP requests sent from scripts - making stuff like realtime stock or crypto prices displayed in-world possible.

We are making good progress on this, expect the initial build with scripting to be available soon!
